Eastern Carolina Gas And Oil Company President Seeks Treasurer Position

Three-term state Representative Bill Daughtridge said Friday that he has begun in earnest a bid to become state treasurer in 2008. Daughtridge, a Republican, held a campaign kickoff event with about 150 people Thursday night in Nash County that he said raised almost 100-thousand dollars. Daughtridge is the president of a family gas and oil distribution company in Rocky Mount. He said his career and education make him qualified to become state treasurer, whose largest responsibility is overseeing North Carolina's 74 (b) billion dollars in public pension funds. Current Treasurer Richard Moore, a Democrat, is expected to run for governor in 2008.
